ON IT GOES... Lyrics(VERSE 1)
I'm starting to look 26 but I still feel 17
The depression? Well it's just the same
No progression, just a new routine
I searched up cosmetics to save the youth leaving my face
Couple hundred dollars for a couple months of grace
Worth it, don't you say?
(PRE-CHORUS 1)
I don't laugh when they say 'oh where has the time gone?
All those opportunities I should've climbed on
Hate my beauty in the past but now I crave it
Cry myself to sleep knowing I couldn't save it
I don't laugh when they say 'oh you haven't lived yet
All those lovely memories they put in frames yeah
Babies, rings and naughty flings, gossip good enough for kings
I don't want anything
(CHORUS)
I race against the clock but it's only getting faster
I got plenty energy but I'm not gonna catch her
On and on and on and on and on and on we go-o-o
Compliments are sympathy for every age milestone
I can only focus on the speed in which the times goes
On and on and on and on and on and on it go-o-es
(VERSE 2)
I don't make anybody proud, I don't take any risks now
I don't act my age but I don't know how to change
They got a supersonic brain that tells them how to do this
They got a script of what to say to help to get them through this
I won't believe what they think is true, that the fault is me, not you
(PRE-CHORUS 2)
Every time they ask how I've been doing I say 'oh I'm doing fine
They ask me what I've been up to I say 'not much' with a smile
They ask me if I've been dating, I say 'no' with no surprise
I know that they're all waiting to watch my wings fly
They'd say 'finally, wipe their brow with new relief
Watch my shadow on the nest and pray to God I do my best
But the truth is I'm a sore thumb, the outsider, the lost one
And I'll always be
(CHORUS)
I race against the clock but it's only getting faster
I got plenty energy but I'm not gonna catch her
On and on and on and on and on and on we go-o-o
Compliments are sympathy for every age milestone
I can only focus on the speed in which the times goes
On and on and on and on and on and on it go-o-es
(OUTRO)
I don't laugh when they say 'oh where has the time gone?
All those opportunities I should've climbed on
On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
I don't laugh when they say 'oh you haven't lived yet
All those lovely memories they put in frames yeah
On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
